The Course at Aberdeen

Was a great day for golf. No wind, mid 80's and sunny. Pace of play was good for the amount of people there. This is a must play course for every decent golfer. Could be a struggle for you high handicappers as it is very tight and long.

As always, a great round on a great course. Played after a rain and all was well. I would recommend this course to anyone if you haven't already played it.

very nice course, country club atmosphere. they ask that you wear a shirt with a collar and no blue jeans. i paid $32.00 for 18 holes with a cart on a friday afternoon around 3 pm. you might even get it for $25 on the course website. lots of tall grass areas, which are more of an issue on the back nine than the front. the back nine has a lot of wetland areas adjacent to the holes. on the day i was there, they had over 5 inches of rain in the previous week. the course drained well enough to allow carts off the path. only on hole # 12 was there an issue. there was a large amount of standing water around the green. this particular hole is surrounded by wetlands.

a fine quality course , a great value and very nice staff. I recommend riding because green to tee can be a long way and hilly

I live in Chicago, so about an hour drive, well worth it, EVERY TIME, course was in great shape, real cool layout, a course I wouldn't recommend walking, long distances between tees. The staff could not be nicer. There tee boxes, for every level of golfer, which makes a real challenging course, very playable. Very reasonable price wise as well.

Course was in great shape.Greens are a bit small
they roll true except for spots with unrepaired ball marks.some tight driving holes.Bring extra balls.
Only complaint is not all flags had the set up to use
laser link range finder so yardages were tough to get
sometimes. Loved the course .very senic and peaceful.Can,t wait to play it again.
staff was very friendly and helpful

everything was great. weather, course, price.

just an all around great day!

This is a fun course to play. You must keep it in the fairway. The roughs are high and consequently play tough and your ball can be hard to fine. The greens were very smooth and true. We felt bad about the caliber of customers. Greens had multiple ball marks on every green and the traps had many footprints as deep as 6 inches. Come on golfers, respect the course and your fellow golfers.

This course can help make you the best golfer. Great play, gorgeous grounds and staff was incredibly friendly.

beautiful layout, tough golf course for handicap over 10 but I enjoy the sceneries.

The Aerification of the greens, which made it impossible to putt. I understand that it is necessary to do this but the holes were so large, unlike any I have ever seen before.

We got off ahead of our tee time. The fairways and greens were in great shape. No delay during the round. The setting has natural beauty with wild life (saw a deer, a wild turkey, a hawk, and hundreds of squirrels. Out of the last 5 courses played, this was by far the best overall experience.

A scorecard with the hole layout would be handy. Friendly staff and the course was in pretty good shape. Many of the sand traps were full of water. More yardage markers needed. Otherwise, it is an interesting course with some unique holes. You at times seem isolated, but on many holes you feel like you are playing through the middle of a subdivision.

Aberdeen is in good condition. The fairways, tees and greens are very nice. The rough isn't a factor, but some of the holes have long carries with hidden ravines and some holes were cart path only.
On the second hole right in the middle of our fairway was
a reincarnation of Carl Spackler. This grounds keeper stood
poking the ground in the middle of the fairway while we were
trying to tee off. After a few minutes of this I asked him what he was doing. He said that he was looking for the 150 yard marker hole oblivious of us. Later he kept following us with his noisy maintenance cart.
There is no starter and no Marshall on this course. They do not allow carts in the parking lot. You have to wait for the bag man to come and take your clubs down stairs to your cart. This
is a big time delay. There's only one bag man.
After the fourth hole we ran into a group of female foursomes
who claimed to be a ladies league. The pace of play slowed to
a crawl.
What could have been an enjoyable round of golf was ruined by
these inept players who never asked if we wanted to play through as we waited ten minutes on every shot.
This is a hilly albeit scenic course which requires long carries over valleys and dales.
The 150 yard pole is frequently way off for distance and should not be relied on.
This course could clean up it's act by using a good timer/starter and a roaming Marshall.

The 3+ inches of rain the night before made the course very long and challenging. The crew, however, has done a great job in keeping it playable, even as wet as it was.

I love a golf course where the hole you are on is the only hole you see. Most of the holes at Aberdeen are exactly like that. Some very nice elevation changes, challenging layout with a few blind shots and a few uneven tee boxes (my only negatives and reasons for not giving 5 stars ) and every hole is different. Mostly wooded with a few homes beside but not right on the fairway. I live in the western suburbs of Chicago but travel to Indiana several times a year to play this course. If you like a challenging and beautiful course, I highly recommend Aberdeen.

The course is great. It is over watered and mushy in a few spots but we just took a free drop at the couple places where that occurred. The brush in front of the tee boxes is also in need of cutting down. If it was in the way we moved to a different spot on the tee. All in all a very nice place to play.

This course has wonderfully laid out holes...challenging, but not overly so. Aside from the first two holes that run parallel to each other, the holes are independently located, which I like. There are elevation changes, water and sand. You cannot beat the price for what you get here...have paid more for golf at lesser courses. This is a must play in my book.

Loved this course! The course is beautiful and well maintained and look forward to going back when it isn't so wet. I would definitely recommend this course to any serious golfer, who needs to be challenged and made to feel at home by the staff!

I have been to this course twice now. The first time I went, I was stuck behind a high school golf outing and it took me about 5 hours to golf 18 holes with a foursome. The second time out, I was stuck behind a threesome that would not let my twosome pass and the threesome behind us kept hitting into us.
Overall, the course is challenging and well maintained, however, the excessive time it took to play in addition to the poor golf etiquette displayed by the fellow golfers will prevent me from playing this course again.
